Noux building in Norway
Monday, March 26th, 2007
Steinar from Norway sent me some more pictures of his Noux boats. He has completed the first boat (see below), and is now building a second one.
Another view of the spray-painting setup.
The bulb is home-made, cast in a plaster mould.
Here is Steinar’s first boat, now completed and painted. I posted some building pictures earlier here and here.
Steinar asked if there is a Noux-logo. Sure! I just need to post it online in some common format. Stand by…
Norwegian Noux News
Monday, December 4th, 2006
Steinar from Norway wrote to tell me about his Noux project. He started out building a planked wooden Noux (above), but it ended up too heavy, so instead a wooden plug was made (below)

Using this plug Steinar has now made a mould and moulded a few glassfiber Noux hulls. There’s no standard deck solution for the Noux yet so Steinar has invented his own, with a central round hatch for access to the electronics.

Building a wooden Noux
Sunday, March 12th, 2006Inspired by the drawings and design info available on my site, and by Michael Scharmers article on iom-nordic.org, Peter Trimmer (AUS) is putting together a wooden Noux. He sent me some pictures of his progress.

Here is the plug for the bulb turned out of wood. A mould around this from plaster will be made and the bulb will be cast in lead.
Noux 2 layout plan and 3D IGES file
Wednesday, March 8th, 2006An updated layout plan for the Noux-2 with the winch placed under the foredeck and a circular theme for the hatches.
There’s also been a request for a 3D IGES model for the Noux-2 so here it is.
Update 2006 May 03: Hsinli Liu ponted out some problems with the previous IGES file. I have made a new one which should be at better resolution: Noux2_2006may03.IGS
